james.wilson Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 If you have an output you can program as ac fail then yes. If not you can use a 240 v relay to do it securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Oxo Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 No outputs on this, so no is the easy answer. As James says a relay would be able to switch to activate the dialler. Just remember if the standby battery is not in good health as the mains fails the SD1 will fail to dial out as it will be running from the alarm panel battery. I would use the relay from the tramsformer outputs to energise the coil, then use a N/O pair to send the neg to trigger 3 on the SD1 (Or 2 depending on what you are using). If you have the TS410 you have room, if it is the TS400 you may have to box the relay outside the panel as you know it is very tight in there. If you go for it we can provide a diagram for you, As always when working with mains, isolate and test before commencing works. Regards.

sixwheeledbeast Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Mains relay is the way to go, exactly like Ox. In addition worth throwing a test keyswitch between the relay and the dialler. That way if you have to isolate the mains yourself, you can disable it dialling.

Oxo Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Then again it could be a handy test Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/33436-menvier-ts-400-when-power-is-down-what-i-can-do-to-call/#findComment-290705 Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 A timer relay would be a good addition set at say 30 mins so only long fails are reported instead of minor small outages securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

PeterJames Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Next questions "What type of relay?" " Where do I get one?" "What do I do with it now I have it?"

sixwheeledbeast Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 TRM aka DRM or timed/delayed release module. Is a relay with a timer built in. Wire it in series with the switch between the two items, mains relay and dialler. Mains relay can be anything with a 230v coil Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/33436-menvier-ts-400-when-power-is-down-what-i-can-do-to-call/#findComment-290712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
